Voting in the 2019 election for President and At-large Board Member ended in December, 2019. Thanks to Nancy Lowry’s careful tallying, the results showed that you elected Nell Fredericksen for President and re-elected Adam Rotche for At-Large Board Member. Amy Gonzalez was appointed to the position of NCF Development Chair and Theta Miller was appointed to the position of Service Weekend Coordinator.

This year the position of Vice President is up for election and the positions of Communications Chair and Finance Chair are up for appointment.

The NCF Governance committee will develop a proposed slate of nominees to be approved by the NCF board of directors and ballots will be mailed in November to all qualified voters. Those who contributed money or in-kind contributions during 2019 or 2020 are eligible to vote and will receive ballots with short candidate biographies. We will be using our electronic voting option, but will continue to offer traditional paper ballots.

If you would like to nominate someone to serve on the NCF or NCI board (NCI will be looking to fill the positions of Treasurer and Scholarship Coordinator this year) or would like to serve yourself, please contact me, Sarah Hulcher for NCF positions (hulchers@gmail.com) or Joe Garvin for NCI positions (joe.sue.garvin@gmail.com).

We are always wanting to broaden and strenghten our boards, so please do not hesitate to contact us to learn about the many ways in which you can become involved. If you are not interested in a board position, keep in mind we have special projects and events that need committee volunteers as well.
